The end of the funicular railway on Cairngorm.  You wanted to see the mountain?  Come with us next time!

Alice checks out other accommodations in the Cairngorm displays – but decides to stay with her original arrangements

At the top are some very interesting displays – about the weather, about the mountain, about skiing, information for people of all interests. We, being an interesting group, were interested in everything. Cairngorm refers the range and to the mountain we were on. It is spectacular and very hard to leave.



Ballindalloch Castle is a beautiful home inside and out!

  Mrs. Russell joined us for much of our harp event – if we’d only had another harp, she could have joined us – hopefully next time! While there we worked on tunes specifically related to the Castle. One of two people poked in and enjoyed observing our playing too. When we were done playing we visited the castle and then it really hit us how very lucky we were to have been invited to play there!


Mrs Russell chatted with us during our harp event in the Dining room of Ballindalloch



On that high note (pun intended!) we departed for our last night’s accommodation.  We were all riding high from our incredible day – but we were not done yet! We all made ready for a lovely, homemade dinner in the style of hospitality for which Scotland is famous. David and Heather invited us into their home for a traditional dinner on our final evening. Heather made us a sumptuous feast and we all ate ‘til we were full to burstin’! I only wish any of us had had the presence of mind to take a picture – but again – if you want to see it, you’ll have to come with us next time!
